Kevin C. Moore @kevncmoore.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Someone should write a novel based on what this question implies about the contradictions and limits of human agency (“should AI labs be treated like the owners of dangerous animals?”). Might have one handy… 100

Reposted by Kevin C. MooreDr. Thinking is fun @evenannaliese.bsky.social · 23/05/2026“AI” in the form we’re experiencing it—political, educational, and commercial forced adoption—is social engineering and ideological indoctrination at a scale and speed only the most dystopian narratives have imagined. Truly Cassandra and gaslight feelings to be witnessing and objecting in this era. 0308
